Intro

My name is Eric Pilon-Bignell. I have been fortunate enough to experience many great adventures in my life, and the most exciting adventure awaits me in Project7. I see Project7 as a great opportunity, not only for the adventure of a lifetime, but a great opportunity to give back and help raise money for a great cause. That is how Project7 was created.

My goal is to take my passion for the outdoors and use it to help others. I plan to physically train, grow myself as a mountaineer and eventually climb the 7 highest peaks on each continent, while raising money for Brain Research. Research can take years for significant breakthroughs and the amount of training, preparation and ascents will also take many years. While raising money for Brain Research, I plan to climb many BIG mountains and experience many great cultures.

The goal is to climb many BIG mountains and hope to summit all of them. Safety will prevail to ensure a continual effort towards my goal……. Plus I promised my wife to return home after each climb.

Hike

"Often times, trying to understand our passions is like trying to focus on the most distant star in the night sky...it can't be done. It's only once you look away, or put the star in your periphery that you can see clearly. Stare straight at them, and they tend to vanish. It seems less and less important why we are passionate about certain things...and more important that we follow those passions as far as we allow them to take us." -Cory Richards
